24 hour flight

Three planes, 24 hours of travel and two lost bags later, we arrived in Blacksburg, Virginia at 8:00pm Saturday night (local time) having left Brisbane at 11:00 am Saturday morning.  Whilst the first leg (13 hours to LA) was not bad, and I got a fair bit of work done, the flights and transfers after that were hard work – not to mention the large gentleman in front of me who fully reclined his seat!  To top it all off, our bags are still in Chicago but we might see them again one day.  Maybe.  If we are lucky!  Time for some sleep – we’ll do a proper post tomorrow.

  2. Hey Matt (and Barry). Glad you arrived safely, and that you now have your bags. I think I would have more sympathy for you however if we hadn't have done a similar trip with a 2 and a 4 year old!! Look forward to hearing more about your trip.
